Dwayne Johnson provides a depressing Black Adam update as the DC Universe movie faced with its box office struggles.
Since Gunn and Peter Safran are now in charge of the property, the future of the DCU has been uncertain for the past few weeks.
Johnson finally received his due this fall after nearly two decades of efforts to bring Black Adam to the big screen, but not with the outcomes he had hoped for.
He has been mum about all the ongoing changes at DC Studios for the past few weeks.
Johnson has now spoken out over Black Adam 2 and the future of his franchise.
After meeting with the new DC Studios executives, he released a detailed statement on Twitter, announcing that his antihero will not appear in the debut DCU book.
The actor does hint that there will be other events to look forward to.
Johnson made a statement about Black Adam, and in response, Gunn defended the actor.
Johnson emphasised that Black Adam would disrupt the DCU's power structure after his release.
Johnson had hoped to see Black Adam battle Superman after Henry Cavill reprised his role as the Man of Steel in the post-credits sequence.
